been busy the past few days, but i'll get to this when i can. thanks and God Bless!!!

that's so cute!! my day started with a friend of my son's calling me at 6:45am from her friends house where she had fallen asleep and needed a ride home, so i drove her back home. then i hung with another friend for a while. it was nice.

spent some time with my friend today. from what i can tell, he acts upon his impulses, whether right or wrong. i think that's where his problems lie. he's a smart guy, but when he does something wrong, he just laughs it off, or doesn't see it as wrong. i like him alot and i'm hoping we can...

i didn't get here until 11pm and my eyes are tired. it looks like a good article tho. i'm gonna read it better tomorrow. thanks!! gail

thanks dave and ritz. it's just hard to make decisions affecting your future when the future is unknown. easier to stay miserable in the known. anyways... i really didn't know where to put this thread because i couldn't find an area for older people who are facing major life changes. i'm...

thanks dave and diane. i've been going to bible studies for the past 15 yrs or so, so i know quite alot. i'm an authority at trials, so i know every verse relating to them. lol my name is gail. my best friend calls me gailie. i live in ohio. oh, i might have a prayer or two from my...

i don't have a church family (never really did, even when i went to church every week) nor any christian friends, really, that i see regularly. no one prays for me. my friend i see the most is divorced and says i should stay married no matter how miserable i am because the grass is not always...

thanks, feileacan. that's so true, that even normal relationships have to be worked at to be maintained. no one is normal, really. we all carry years of baggage with us into the relationship.

no offense, but you sure type kinda weird. :) no, we have absolutely no relationship. none. we don't talk to each other, look at each other, acknowledge each other. nothing. apparently that's the way he deals with conflict. oh well. thank God for friends on and off the internet. no...

he's 18. and maybe that's true that his actions are attempts to fit in. he's moved alot in his life and has had a history of having to leave friends to make new ones. he's a real character.. very flamboyant (if i haven't said that before). i heard he got another job at a pizza place and...

why would i criticize anyone? that's totally NOT me. i'm gonna end this thread because no one here really knows me, and i don't feel like explaining myself and my situation 100% to a community who may or may not even care. that's what my friends are for. later, and thank you everyone for...

great story, dianac!

..

thanks, ToHoldNothing. yea, he doesn't seem to realize that things he does can get him into trouble. last november, his gf was letting him drive her car (with her in it) and he was driving into mailboxes at the end of each driveway and i think he knocked down a few. the cops put him in jail...

LOL i agree 50 is the new 40. on a good day i feel pretty young. even my son's friends like me! (son is almost 18) i might add that i have a few really good cyberfriends who are in their 20's and we get along really well. i love them dearly, and i've even met them. i flew from ohio to...

that's true, DIANAC, it's about how faithful the Lord is in our times of trials. amen to that!

thanks, dianac. well, the one thing i do have is my faith. God has been there before for me (during the stillborn delivery of my daughter, and the grueling month my mom was laying dying at hospice house) so i know He'll be here for me again. i just wish i had a crystal ball. ya know? :)...

thanks for all the info everyone. yea, my friend alex... he's got a zeal for life, as i just read above. that's the admirable trait i like. no time now, but i'm gonna read more later. not so sure i agree with the soul thing. what would be a good enough reason? and where is that in the...

...just all games here. lol is that what happens when your over 50? seriously... i'm 55 and at times i feel like my world is crashing down around me. i've got a horrible marriage and i hope to divorce, i could use another job, one with benefits (if i should leave), my only son who is my best...

not happy. i can NEVER discuss the Lord or anything related to christianity, and it's kinda sad. husband is a non-practicing catholic.
